Mount Clemens to re-interview city manager candidates

The Mount Clemens City Commission tonight will re-interview two potential candidates for the city managerís position.

The candidates are Jason Friedmann, community and economic development director for Hamtramck, and Steven Brown of the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation.

A third candidate, Royal Oak Assistant City Manager Stewart Meek, has withdrawn from consideration.

The candidates were previously interviewed and have been invited back for a second round, said Mayor Barb Dempsey.

Dempsey said Interim City Manager Robert Bruner continues to interview for similar jobs in other communities, but has indicated he might consider staying in Mount Clemens following the August millage election. However, commissioners feel they must move forward in replacing Doug Anderson, who stepped down in April.

The special meeting will begin at 5:45 p.m. with Brown being interviewed at 6 p.m., followed by Friedmann at 6:45 p.m. After the interviews, commissioners will hold a discussion about what action to take next.
